@Apkal @ankit_raj01 I have read three books of Hansda Sir, very compelling stories and novels! Totally agree 👍

Hansda Sowvendra Shekhar, Saba Sams, and Xiaolu Guo are among my favourite short story writers. Of course, ‘Lihaaf’ by Ismat Chughtai will always be one of the most impressive short stories to be written in the Indian sub-continent. #writer
Ankit Raj Ojha@ankit_raj01

In @Apkal's "Protection", a policeman and a lover hunt for a missing condom with the clock ticking. Aparna speaks her mind on finding comedy in awkward crises. barebonespublishing.in/2026/01/14/in-… THE BARE BONES BOOK OF HUMOUR: barebonespublishing.in/product/the-ba… Also available on Amazon Kindle. 10/n

My book ‘Silence Has a Sound’ is gaining traction and is already Top 50 in poetry. Thanks to those who pre-ordered a copy. I am sure you will find my musings relatable (The book should reach around mid-April) #poetrycommunity

@ChinmayeegG @ShikhaSLamba I love John Green’s YA novels and have read them all 😀 PG Wodehouse and The Bare Bones Book of Humour is a really good read 😊

@ShikhaSLamba @MitraSamal Absolutely agree. I find people being bitter for trivial reasons while behind doors, we all fight our own silent battles of life. Can you recommend some of your favourite books ?

I agree wholeheartedly with you, Mitra. We need things that comfort our souls. I try to read widely, and many books I read are powerful, impactful and heart wrenching. But I have my escape- I read a lot of romance on the side too 😊

With all due respect, as much as we need powerful writing, we also need comfortable literature. I feel there should be one book for our every mood. Moreover, some light reads did save us during pandemic 💜🙏
